"And in those simple beautiful movements I remembered what was really important in training; that consistency trumps intensity; all the time. That intensity is born from consistency. That one cannot force it, one has to lay in wait for it, patiently, instinctively, calmly and be ready to grab it when Grace lays it down in front of you."

32 kg One arm swings,( 200), 105 lb bar hacks, sandbag pushups, bar curls, band rear delt
Surprising day on a couple fronts. The first surprise was that my neck didn't bother me on the swings at all. The second one was that my ribs did. The Doc had a hard adjustment on my right side and I felt the ribs not move when they were supposed to and I knew it was a bit tweaky.
Slept fine on it and the warmup swings were good but once I got into the 20 reps sets I could feel it.
Just a twinge but a surprise.
Neck is about 80%. Still stiff but in the lower region, not the atlas/axis region.Have to make sure to keep it moving and NOT look down so much when I type and use my phone.
Tomorrow's ruck will be 40 lbs and I will NOT hone or type right after
One arm swings
16 kg x 5/5 x 2
20 kg x 5/5
24 kg x 5/5
28 kg x 5/5
32 kg x 10/10 x 10 sets
200 reps
14,000 lbs
very strong and wind was good. very fast pace too, just Joe and I and we went back to back Nice to see my conditioning is solid here
The 32 felt like a light 24 .It will be very interesting to see how it feels next time I take the 10 min test. Still want to do the 40 kg for 5 min 100 rep test but, then again, I don't feel like suffering that much yet.
must be a sign I'm really not optimally ready
Barbell hacks
55 x 10
75 x 10
95 x 10
105 x 8
115 x 8
these are feeling better as I go heavier. legs definitely stronger and good ankle ROM exercise as well
Sandbag pushups
bw x 10
30 lbs x 10 x 4 sets
done slowly with high muscle tension and lockout.
barbell curls
55 x 8 x 3
band rear delts, standing
3 x 15
ok this was good considering what it could have been. Tomorrow will be a big tell as to what's up.
